Fans of Type O Negative should sink their teeth into the new Neon Nightmare album, which channels Peter Steele’s gothic doom sound with a modern twist.
From the press release: “Born out of the elemental primordium contained in heavy metal’s working class roots, from the war-scarred industrial landscapes of Birmingham to the beat up bars and basements of Brooklyn, Neon Nightmare arrive like a ghost in the night to carry on the tradition.
“A blink-and-you’ll-miss-it but unmistakable deadpan satirical strain runs through the debut LP, Faded Dream. For all its genuine foreboding and confrontation with real depression, the album never loses itself in the mire or gives up on its predilection for thrill-seeking amusements and sanguine fascination. The sounds conjured have lived in many momentous forms throughout the decades of heavy metal history, and Neon Nightmare are here to continue the cycle.”
Today, the artist has shared a music video for Faded Dream standout track “They Look Like Shadows”, directed by Emmanuella Zachariou. In the video, the man behind the project finally reveals his identity by making a cameo in the storyline.
